Pascal Bouchard Vézelay 2018
Burgundy, FranceLocated in the heart of the Chablis region, Maison Pascal Bouchard is one of the leading negotiants of Chablis and the Grand Auxerrois, sourcing from over 40 hectares. This comes from Vézelay, south of Chablis, and was vinified in stainless, where it continued to age for 8 months. Tight and bright with lemon, white peach blossom, and white grapefruit across a lightly lees-decked palate. It has some of the palate generosity of the weighted 2018 vintage, but ample bright freshness to counter, finishing quite harmonious at 12.5%. A lovely, smart, accessible white Bourgogne for drinking now.Tasted: 14 June 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $30.00 | 750ml | BCLS |
